Primal Scream is the second album by Scottish indie rock band Primal Scream. Released on 4 September 1989 through Creation and Mercenary Records, it took a harder rock approach than their debut album Sonic Flower Groove and did not achieve great success. However, the song "I'm Losing More Than I'll Ever Have" was later remixed to provide the breakthrough single "Loaded" that appeared on their much celebrated third album Screamadelica.
The album received mixed-to-positive reviews from music critics. Tim Sendra of Allmusic wrote: "While the group was capable of whipping up a credible approximation of thuggish hard rock, Bobby Gillespie's fragile wisp of a voice is rather ill-suited to kicking out the jams."
All tracks composed by Bobby Gillespie, Andrew Innes and Robert "Throb" Young
